 Hi,

 {{{
 g.rename vect=Map1,map1
 }}}

 is a no-op. The map is not renamed. :(

 in the above example there was no attached DB. not sure what happens if
 there is (ie partial rename->breakage?).

 perhaps due to some MS-Windows accommodation which has gone too far?
 I've been using case sensitive names for years to indicate type of map /
 protection from typos. Losing the ability to manage them properly or
 having all treated as lowercase() would stink.
